you could use the buttons: http://www.developer.nokia.com/Commu...-_S60_Touch_UI to make the dialpad, and then simply use CTElephony API for dialing the call.

Is there any api which can show dial pad? I don't want to create custom dial pad initially if I get support to get phone dial pad.

appears to be that there are no reliable way, at least according to this older thread: http://www.developer.nokia.com/Commu...0-phone-dialer

So, I have to create custom dial pad. Is it?

if you can not use the original app, then you do have the option on making your own.

Hi,

If you just want to launch the built-in dial pad then the most straightforward way is simulating a green key press, like this.

"S60 5th Edition: How to launch the built-in dial pad #9"

and if you want more for example launch the dial pad then 'key in' a number programmically, then see this one
